Little Monkey

Coordinating the kitchen installation ready give me a headache. 1. The installation of the granite came too early at 9 am on thursday at an unexpected time. I was on the way to work and have to rush a person down to the flat to open the door for the worker. 2. Partial payment to the contractor cause some confusing also. and In the end, i insisted the payment only went to the main contractor. :-) .... 3. There is missing section for the Oven, and the contractor has to ask his worker to tear down one section and rebuild the compartment for it. 4. Unable to find the kitchen tap...in the end..it was hiding in the store-room. :-) but even with all the issues above, the result are quite satisfactory... will post the photos tomorrow once i got the time to snaps them.

polishing done...quite satisfy...the broken marble is very shinny now. today, fixed the kitchen cabinet ..... the granite top will be up end of this week...

Will do the polish this sat..
